Yes, it did, because the groups/estates were separated, and not treated equally. The people in the lower estates were not allowed the same jobs, privileges, etc. In fact, high-paying jobs were reserved for the nobility. This led the people in the lower estates to become poor, and not able to afford basic necessities such as food.

Was there equality among the three estates?
No, among the three estates the 1st and 2nd estates were considered way higher. Meaning that the 3rd estate was basically the base of the economy. They were the ones who had to pay taxes. Also, they supported the Enlightenment, whereas the 1st and 2nd did not. This would be because of the fact that the Enlightenment period WAS equality. Because of the inequality of the 3rd estate formed the National Assembly and then caused the Tennis Court Oath between the 3rd estate and Louis XVI. (This oath vowed never to separate until a written constitution was established for France.)
